2.6.19 sucks.
Not only it moved CONFIG_SATA_* to CONFIG_ATA_* but also my /dev/sda is
now /dev/sdb!!!! And, when ata_piix loads, there's a delay of 20 seconds at
least.
After changing every /sda to /sdb in /etc/fstab, I booted the box. dmesg is
full of timeouts coming from sda, which seems to be my DVD+RW drive (which on
2.6.18 is on hda)
Someone messed SATA (ICH at least) very badly with 2.6.19.
I hope this helps someone.

Thanks. This solved my problem. My raid controller is now /dev/sda/. It
used to be /dev/sdc. And my 2 onboard disks are /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc!
Cheers,
Dave.
